21, F. After using topical minoxidil, I got excessive facial hair. It's quite visible. I used it for 2 months. What can I do?

Plus I never went for facial hair removal methods, I just trimmed it once. My doc suggested me to use eflonithine (eflora).. It is not much effective. Please help me to get out of this situation

I would reschedule the laser hair removal appointment after surgery to prevent possible infections and unanticipated burns that may delay your other surgery. Best answer will come from the PS who will be performing your laser hair removal.

Thank you for your question. If you have a few small blemishes on the area resulting from razor burn / shaving, it is safe to treat with laser hair removal. However, if the skin is broken and the blemishes are large / painful, I would advise to wait until the area is less sensitive before you...

Hello, yes this should not be an issue at all especially since the laser will not be going over the area that has been microbladed.
